Olivia in "The Proud Rebel" at the TCM Classic Film Festival

It's been fun reading all the blog posts on this years TCM fest!

A few posts to share in case you missed them:

First, Laura had the rare opportunity to see both an Olivia AND Joan film in the same day! How awesome is that?  First was the screening of The Proud Rebel (1958) and an interview with Alan Ladd's son David Ladd, who also appears in the movie.  Check out Laura's post here. Laura also caught a screening of 1940's Rebecca!

Also, the Classic Movie Man made it to The Proud Rebel screening, too. He hadn't seen the movie in over 25 years! Read his account here. 

Kristina of Speakeasy also caught The Proud Rebel - read her review here.

So much fun and excitement at the TCM Fest! Thanks to everyone for sharing your experiences!

David at A Trip Down Memory Lane has a terrific salute to Olivia de Havilland today. Check out the blog post here:

Olivia de Havilland at 98

Louis Jourdan (1921–2015)

I was saddened to hear of the passing of Louis Jourdan, who co-starred with Joan Fontaine in two pictures: Letter from an Unknown Woman (1947) and Decameron Nights (1953).

Read more about Letter from an Unknown Woman here.

To modern audiences he is best known for playing a villain in the James Bond film Octopussy (1983) but many others best remember his earlier films such as Three Coins in the Fountain (1954), Can-Can (1960), and the Oscar winning Best Picture Gigi (1958).

He never won an Oscar, but in Gigi he performed the song that went on to win an Oscar for Best Song "Gigi". Revisit that wonderful scene from the movie here:

 

Rest in peace, Gaston.

I've really been enjoying Leonard Maltin's new podcast, "Maltin On Movies", listening on my commute to and from work.

In the last few episodes he and his co-host have been talking about the Oscar nominees  helping to bring up to speed on the latest buzz.
